Pros:

Overall I had a great stay. The staff was so nice and the property was beautiful. My only thing is the ac in the room was not strong and it was very hot to sleep at night. Besides that, it was great. Food and drinks were great and the beach was so nice and clean.

Pros:

We LOVED this property and hope to stay there again! The ONLY issue we had is with trash/litter … the property itself is very clean but the areas around the property have litter & trash and even some on the beaches and sand areas in front of the property. I think this is a constant battle for them, but it would help if there were more trash cans for the public! Other than that we can’t say enough great things about the property - beautiful, felt safe, stunning view, lovely and private. The staff was wonderful. We truly loved it!

This was our mini honeymoon my husband and I took before we left the Dominican Republic and we had the best time at Natura Cabana! So thankful to the whole team for providing a great experience. We loved the pool, spa, and took advantage of the yoga classes and free breakfast!

Lovely place!
Pros:

Natura Cabana was perfect! Excellent food, steps from the beach, staff were lovely, massage was great - what more could you need? In particular, Victor went above and beyond and helped my wife get her AirPods back after we had left for another hotel in a different part of the island. We will definitely return!

Pros:

Our stay at the property was out of this world. We had such an amazing time. The food was good, only hiccup was dinner. They try to create an American style menu which is okay, but would have preferred more local cuisines.
Staff was friendly, beach was beautiful and secluded. Our room was very clean and I have to say the design was great. I am looking forward to going back with my kids since this time was a couple trip. Thank you having us.
One last thing, we did a romantic dinner on the beach. Very impressed with the attention, candle lights and service. Highly recommend trying it.

Pros:

Rustic setting, nice natural accommodations. Rooms are a bit uncomfortable during hot days due to lack of a/c. There are no TVs. Some of the restaurant staff are not too friendly. Some are very nice and professional. If you are into yoga, nature and don’t mind not having a/c and tv, it’s fine.

Pros:

The hotel is inside a gated community which felt very safe. It was on the beach which was beautiful. I stayed with my family at the beginning or the low season it wasn’t crowded at all which was wonderful. The restaurant food and staff were amazing, the hotel concierge were super nice and friendly. The spa girl was great. The rooms were clean and near and beautiful. Some helpful tools for future guests would be to bring your own toiletries and plenty of bug spray. Even with the mosquito nets provided my daughter, my parents and myself got bit up pretty good by mosquitoes which could’ve easily been prevented if we came prepared. My parents’ only qualm was that they would’ve preferred a chair in the room to sit for miscellaneous reasons, like after their shower a place to sit to put on their shoes or whatnot-but the bed is the only place to sit or lay in the room. The entrance seating area is beyond beautiful with the hammock. Just minor quirks but beautiful place nonetheless.

We loved our stay at Natura Cabana. Everyone was pleasant and helpful. Food options were great. The property is right on the beach and the pool area is nice. The property felt safe and secluded and so are the surrounding areas. Also, the spa!!! We had the best facials. Can't wait to return!
